Kafka and Milena or Pessoa and Ofelia?
>>
Don't know a thing about either but Kafka's relationship seems to have a more teenager appeal and the physiognomies of the ones below are better so

Alvaro de Campos and Ofelia, because they acually fucked
>>
Neither

Kafka lacks rereadability, especially his novels and his short stories are only rereadable because they are short. I try and reread him every few years or so but once you know where things will go he does not offer much, the surprise is gone and he is not going to give anything else to discover. I don't find Pessoa much more rereadable but that is more because he is a bit of a downer, I always get something new out of him. Pessoa is the better writer in every way but plot.

Tabloids and publications like People really seem like they would be more satisfying reading material if you want celebrity gossip.

idk if its common for every great writters but i've had more fun reading kafka's letters to his father,editor friend and girlfriend than his most of short stories .there are some short stories that were great indeed like that"arab and jackal","judgement","in the penal colony" ,"a country doctor","before the law" but they felt like mere precise of some full fledged stories we will never see.i havent read his unfinished novels yet.

When you read his novels you will quickly see that Kafka was a plotfag, he just could not move past plot and develop things any other way, it held him back as a writer. The structure of his novels is essentially that of his short stories, he just repeats the same story over and over with a time element added in to give the illusion of progressing forward towards something, especially The Trial. He uses it well and I enjoyed them a great deal, it just does not provide the best reread experience.
